33 Generic Framing Procedure ITU-T G.7041 and ANSI T Defines mapping for many types of service onto SONET/SDH or OTN: Ethernet, IP/PPP GbE, Fibre Channel (inc. DVB), FICON etc Excellent bandwidth utilization; efficiency tailored to suit different client types Simple delineation and robust error control Extensible

34 ATM Motivation for GFP (1/2) Cell overhead causes 10% bandwidth inflation Adaptation functions needlessly complex Packet over SONET (POS) Requires all frames to be converted to PPP over HDLC Byte stuffing causes non-deterministic bandwidth inflation QoS hard to monitor or guarantee

35 Motivation for GFP (2/2) Minimal overhead Transport of client PDUs in native format Designed for optimized processing Easy aggregation of frames from multiple client and multiple protocols into shared bandwidth channels Low latency capabilities for SAN
